For true birders, there is discipline, adventure, and the spirit of the hunt. By nature, bird lovers are naturalists and collectors (of species), and for minimal investment they can devote hours upon hours of time-a lifetime, in fact-to the hobby. Bird Watcher's Daily Companion is a sophisticated way for birders to be inspired, motivated, and educated every day of the year. In this book they will find information on everything from differentiating between look alike species, how to plant a hummingbird garden, to choosing the best travel destinations for your next birding vacation. Bird Watcher's Daily Companion complements bird identification guides and does not compete with them directly. The Daily Companion format-the day by day guide to indulging in a favorite pastime-is meant to be used, not to be stowed away a dusty bookshelf. It is suitable for both beginners and expert birders, augmenting and complementing the information found in standard field guides.
